Comparison of Bahay Na Bato and Bahay Kubo

The document compares and contrasts the parts of two traditional Philippine house styles: Bahay na Bato and Bahay Kubo. It provides the Tagalog terms for the living area, dining area, kitchen, toilet, bath, and other rooms and features. For example, the living area of a Bahay na Bato is called a "sala" while the living area of a Bahay Kubo is called a "bulwagan." The table clearly outlines the equivalent terms used for each part of the two house styles.

Comparison of Bahay na Bato and Bahay Kubo:

When I was still reviewing for my board examination, I sometimes interchanged the usage of the
parts of Bahay na Bato and Bahay Kubo. Sometimes I say "the BULWAGAN of Bahay na Bato"
instead of using "sala" to describe the Living Area of Bahay na Bato. That is why I made this table to
perfectly recognize these terms.
